Welcome to the Health Alert Network. This
Project is intended to:
Ensure that each community has rapid and timely access
to emergent health information; a cadre of highly-trained
professional personnel; and evidence-based practices and
procedures for effective public health preparedness, response,
and service on a 24/7 basis.

See our Health Alert Network Fact Sheet
for more information about the Health Alert Network.
The Health Alert Network will function as PHIN’s Health Alert
component. This includes collaborating with federal, state, and
city/county partners to develop protocols and stake holder
relationships that will ensure a robust interoperable platform
for the rapid exchange of public health information.
Current Status
Currently, HAN is a strong national program, providing vital
health information and the infrastructure to support the dissemination
of that information at the State and Local levels, and beyond. A vast
majority of the State-based HAN programs have over 90% of their
population covered under the umbrella of HAN. The HAN Messaging
System currently directly and indirectly transmits Health Alerts,
Advisories, and Updates to over one million recipients. The current
system is being phased into the overall PHIN messaging component.
